  2. Roger,this is very inspirational but it saddens me because it illustrates so vividly just how far our "allies" across the Atlantic have fallen.

  4. Another example of how your thinking makes C&S so, unique. Clawfinger? Zulu!
    You made your kick-ass point with this clip. Think American voters can even vote against the beat?

    Saw Zulu at theater release as a kid. It left a huge weight in my chest when following the Brit's bravery the (plateau) horizon became endless with Zulu warriors.

  5. Terrific post, Rodger. Never thought I would find any Hip Hop I'd like. Zulu is one of my all time favorite movies.

    Men of Harlech
    Zulu movie version
    Verse 1

    Men of Harlech stop your dreaming
    Can't you see their spear points gleaming
    See their warrior pennants streaming
    To this battlefield
    Men of Harlech stand ye steady
    It cannot be ever said ye
    For the battle were not ready
    Stand and never yield
    From the hills rebounding
    Let this song be sounding
    Summon all at Cambria's call
    The mighty force surrounding
    Men of Harlech on to glory
    This will ever be your story
    Keep these burning words before ye
    Welshmen will not yield

    English version by John Guard

  6. I love this movie, it was the first DVD I ever purchased. Dragged my two oldest boys in to watch this clip. We always love the courage displayed.
